Linen damask napkin with a herm, god, and lions amidst acanthus leaves. Central field: quatrefoils of floral bouquets with roses and scattered foliage. In the unbordered quatrefoils, the bouquets are placed diagonally on two acanthus volutes. Corners: diagonally placed a herm with a Midas head (or donkey's head?), with musical instruments and thyrsus staffs. Left and right, a lion turned towards the center, held in check by a winged young god (Apollo?) draped in drapery. Borders: without a dividing line, the field is surrounded by a broad border of symmetrical acanthus scrolls. Alternately, the deeply incised, feathered leaf volutes carry a basket of fruit and flowers, or they stand in two spirals turned towards each other, ending in a ram's mask, above two flower branches and a pinecone.
